RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

+1000;)

Well, I looked at the first video by dart anian . Nothing technically different tbh . Alot of the Linus and Lucy stuff going on. Then he took out a violin bow, and then it got tedious. Watched all of it tho'. As for Mr.Wooten; plenty of sweating going on, then ..banjos !! Aaarggh! Then it broke into that annoying celtic melody . I couldn't watch it . They are both good . So what ? Randy coven is also good but never gets mentioned. I'll leave it there

Haven't joined it yet.

Maybe you could put new nut on , and adjust truss rod. Only do that tho ' if you're gonna permanently have it B-E-A-D imho

Still haven't listened to jarre yet. Tomorrow definitely. How hard can it be ? The track I wanna listen to is the last one on the album. (It is about 50+ mins tho')

That Gordy looks very mean and the jazz

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1381231062' post='2236031'] Didn't know you could get a machine for Pilates. I always thought it was like yoga or similar. [/quote] Forgot to mention I case you didn't know; Pilates and yoga go hand in hand. They are very similar.

I think there are 2 typeset these; cheap and expensive .. Probably best to check eBay /google before buying

There are a couple at least . Google is your friend;)

Due to a raging headache, I will listen to jarre tonight ( I hate this humid weather/oppressive 'office'!!)

Pilates , IMHO is the Sheehan /Hamm of exercise. Not strenuous , it's all about breathing and posture. I really miss my sessions with personal trainer a few years ago. I bought the aero Pilates machine from qvc a couple of years ago . Sharing a flat with my brother has made it remain folded most of the time. Looking at this thread, it is making me think of ideas of getting it out and start using it again. They are cheap on eBay always , as they are bulky and collection only. Pilates rocks !

Opeth are a strange band. I like the frontman. , very dry humour . Have a couple ofp3's . 1 good, 1 terrible IMHO . Want to see them again.

I keep thinking of jarre waiting for Cousteau . Will put it on my iPhone tonight . Anybody else ?

Cool. ! Nice pics

No probs. not my cup of tea tbh

Nice bass

Sounds like mr. Guitard is better off playing with a jukebox than a band.

The higher models look great . The cheaper rock bass look cheap and nasty. Never tried one , but have a vester copy of thumb bass which I love. It is a fretless. Was thinking a getting a real thumb bass but someone on here thinks the vester is better iirc. Might go for a fretted vester tho'

[quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1380903243' post='2232268'] There's quite noticeable fretboard wear. Would someone be able to sand down the fretboard and refinish it? (And use flats/tapewound strings to prevent future marking?) Also, the bridge is missing the saddles. Are these standard types that are easy to find? I'm not going to be bidding myself, too far away and I'm not the right person to fix it. If anyone here does buy it, and starts a restoration thread, I'll follow it. Edit: Ray against the machine; have you reviewed your J&D Brothers bass anywhere? I'm not likely to buy one, but I think they look quite nice and have been wondering what they're like. [/quote] J&d brothers bass? Do you mean my jack daniels bass in my avatar ?

[quote name='solo4652' timestamp='1380891999' post='2232006'] First meeting/jam/rehearsal of the new band yesterday. It's being set up by the guitarist who's fed up with his 9 - 5 job and wants a full-time pro wedding band. "I want 200 songs on the songlist", he said, "and no notes on stage". I'm now contemplating the huge task of learning 200 songs - gulp. [/quote] This Guitard of yours; is it Malmsteen, Blackmore?? Why are you still there? Think Pantera..walk!
